Abstract (en)

[origin: US2015280344A1] This disclosure provides for an electrical probe, which can include a shell extending along a longitudinal axis and defining an internal cavity with an opening at a first end, where the shell can include a neck portion defined by a hollow polygonal shaft twisted about the longitudinal axis to form an internal cam surface. The electrical probe can also include a plunger slidably received in the internal cavity. The plunger can include a tip configured to extend at least partially through the opening at the first end and a cam element integrally formed with the tip and having a cross-sectional shape substantially corresponding to a cross-sectional shape of the hollow polygonal shaft, such that, when the plunger is reciprocated along the longitudinal axis of the shell, the cam element can engage with the internal cam surface of the neck portion to cause rotation of the tip.
